$49.95 – AMERICAN FRONTIERSMEN ON FILM AND TELEVISION - Boone, Crockett, Bowie, Houston, Bridger and Carson – by Ed Andreychuk - ISBN 978-0-7864-2132-9 -- 73 photos, appendix, bibliography, index – 280pp. hardcover (7 x 10) Published in 2005 by McFarland - Description: From the French and Indian War to the Civil War, well over a hundred years of American history is reflected through the lives of six bold and famous men: Daniel Boone, Davy Crockett, Jim Bowie, Sam Houston, Jim Bridger, and Kit Carson.

$35.00 – CAPED CRUSADERS 101 - Composition Through Comic Books – BY Jeffrey Kahan and Stanley Stewart - ISBN 978-0-7864-2532-7 - 15 photos, notes, index - 208pp. softcover 2006 -- Description: The comic-spawned Spider-Man franchise, despite its “pop” status, demonstrates important trends in literature. It raises numerous key questions for developing a better understanding of literary elements and devices. How, for example, do writers involved with the franchise reconcile divergent plotlines and characterizations that appear in multiple serials, and in a number of concurrent depictions of the hero in comic series, television series and films? Readers may be surprised to realize that Shakespeare grappled with similar topics in his Henry VI series, and, for instance, in the character Falstaff’s reemergence from death in The Merry Wives of Windsor. 
This textbook inspires a greater appreciation for literature by studying important literary themes found in comics. By deconstructing comics, it raises critical thinking about literature, a crucial skill for understanding language and composition. Chapters discuss DC, Marvel and other comics’ varied attempts at portraying race, politics, economics, business ethics and democracy; responses to the Cold War and the events of September 11; and portrayals of prisons and capital punishment. Each chapter offers a series of questions that stimulate further reading, writing and discussion. Photographs are included as well. About the Author: Jeffrey Kahan is an associate professor in the English department at the University of La Verne in La Verne, California.##Stanley Stewart is a distinguished professor in the English Department of the University of California at Riverside.

$55.00 – SAVAGES AND SAINTS - The Changing Image of American Indians in Westerns – by Bob Herzberg - ISBN 978-0-7864-3446-6 - 84 photos, bibliography, index - 318pp. hardcover (7 x 10) 2008
Description: The history of American Indians on screen, like the history of any other ethnicity portrayed in a Hollywood film, can be compared to a light shining through a prism. We may have seen bits and pieces of the genuine culture portrayed, but rarely did we see a satisfying and informative whole picture. In films like Cecil B. DeMille’s The Plainsman, the Indian was a murderous savage with few, if any, redeeming qualities. By the time of Delmer Daves’ Broken Arrow and other westerns like it, the portrait of the Indians became that of a misunderstood people who only wanted peace. In the wake of Kevin Costner’s Oscar-winning Dances with Wolves, filmmakers would basically continue this trend into the 1990s and beyond, forever destroying the picture of the Indian as a murderous savage but unfortunately going to the other extreme.
This book deals with the changing image of the American Indian in the Western film genre, contrasting the fictionalized images of native Americans portrayed in classic films from Francis Boggs’ Curse of the Redman to Michael Mann’s Last of the Mohicans against the historical reality of life on the American frontier. The book tells the stories of frontier warriors, Indian and white, revealing how their stories were often drastically altered on screen according to the times the films were made, the stars involved in the film’s production, and the social/political beliefs of the filmmakers. The book also uses studio correspondence, letters from government files, and passages from western novels adapted for the screen, to illustrate the various points of view of the authors who had a direct hand in shaping the Hollywood image of the American Indian. The book features 84 photographs, an index, and a bibliography of more than 100 sources.
About the Author: Playwright and author Bob Herzberg lives in Brooklyn, New York.

$49.95 – SHORT LIVED TELEVISION SERIES 1948 – 1978 - 
Thirty Years of More Than 1,000 Flops -- by Wesley Hyatt
ISBN 978-0-7864-1420-8 - 52 photos, appendix, bibliography, index
328pp. softcover (7 x 10) 2003
Description: Do you remember the 1959 game show where ABC cancelled a tape featuring a female impersonator (Across the Board)? Ever heard of Snip, the 1976 sitcom starring David Brenner that NBC canned just before it debuted? Almost everyone who has worked on a successful television series has also been on one that flopped. Even during the first thirty years of broadcasting, when NBC, CBS, and ABC were the only networks and not quite so quick to cancel unsuccessful programs, hundreds of shows lasted less than one year.
This work tells the stories of those ill-fated series that were cancelled within one year after their premieres. The entries are arranged chronologically from the 1948-1949 through the 1977-1978 seasons, and provide brief descriptions of the shows along with such facts as the type of program each series was; its times, dates, and network; its competition on other networks; and the names of the cast, producer, director and writer. The book also includes information from more than 100 interviews with actors, writers, directors, and producers who worked on the short-lived television series.

$35.00 – SYNDICATED TELEVISION - The First Forty Years, 1947–1987 – by Hal Erickson - ISBN 978-0-7864-1198-6 - 432pp. softcover 2001[1989]
Description: Here is an excellent reference book on “first run” syndication—the distribution of programs either made exclusively for non-network play, or of programs intended for network telecasts but ultimately making their debuts in syndication. Bringing together information not easily found, this work covers the classics such as Sea Hunt, Highway Patrol, The Merv Griffin Show and the Muppet Show, as well as such once-popular but now obscure productions as China Smith, Ripcord and The Littlest Hobo. Coverage goes back to 1947 and the book includes a number of series ignored in other works.
The first section is an overview of the concept of syndication from its earliest application in the newspaper world to the attempt by Fox Television to become a fourth network. The next four sections each cover ten years of syndication, listing the shows (with full background—who produced them and why, who liked them and why, etc.) alphabetically by title under the following genres: Adventure/Mystery, Children’s, Comedy, Drama, Game/Quiz, Informational, Music/Variety, Religious, Sports, Talk/Interview, Travel/Documentary, Westerns, and Women’s.

$39.95 – WESTERNS AND AMERICAN CULTURE 1930 – 1955 – by R. Philip Loy - ISBN 978-0-7864-1076-7- 280pp. softcover 
Description: Many people have fond memories of Friday nights and Saturday afternoons spent in theatres watching cowboy stars of the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s chase villains across the silver screen or help a heroine out of harm’s way. Over 2,600 Westerns were produced between 1930 and 1955 and they became a defining part of American culture. This work focuses on the idea that Westerns were one of the vehicles by which viewers learned the values and norms of a wide range of social relationships and behavior, and thus examines the ways in which Western movies reflected American life and culture during this quarter century. Chapters discuss such topics as the ways that Westerns included current events in film plot and dialogue, reinforced the role of Christianity in American culture, reflected the emergence of a strong central government, and mirrored attitudes toward private enterprise. Also covered is how Westerns represented racial minorities, women, and Indians. Author R. Philip Loy is a professor of political science at Taylor University.

$39.95 – WESTERNS AND THE TRAIL OF TRADITION - A Year-by-Year History, 1929–1962 – by Barrie Hanfling
ISBN 978-0-7864-4500-4 - 110 photos, bibliography, index
270pp. softcover (7 x 10) 2009 [2001]
Description: Over the past century, the western has fluctuated in popularity. Today, it stands, to the dismay of many, at one of its lowest points. Beginning with 1929 and the advent of talkies (In Old Arizona) the author discusses the cultural and industry trends, the directors, producers, studios and especially the stars, and looks at the ways in which their personalities (and financial ups and downs) affected the way westerns were shot. The improvements in technology through the years, the trickhorses, the fistfight choreography, the evolution of plotlines—these are fascinating indicators of the way Americans themselves were changing. Author Barrie Hanfling for a number of years published the Nostalgia Westerns fanzine.

$39.95 – WESTERNS IN A CHANGING AMERICA 1955 – 2000 by R. Philip Loy - ISBN 978-0-7864-1871-8 -- 328pp. softcover 2004
Description: For many, the Westerns of 1930 to 1955 were a defining part of American culture. Those Westerns were one of the vehicles by which viewers learned the values and norms of a wide range of social relationships and behavior. By 1955, however, Westerns began to include more controversial themes: cowardly citizens, emotionally deranged characters, graphic violence, marital infidelity, racial prejudice, and rape, among other issues. This work examines the manner in which Westerns reflected the substantial social, economic and political changes that shaped American culture in the latter half of the twentieth century. Part One of this work considers shifting themes as the genre reacted to changes unfolding in the broader social landscape of American culture. Part Two examines the manner in which images of cowboys, outlaws, lawmen, American Indians and women changed in Westerns as the viewers were offered new understanding of the frontier experience. Author R. Philip Loy teaches at Taylor University and is associate dean for the Social Science Division. He is also the author of Westerns and American Culture, 1930–1955 (2001). He lives in Upland, Indiana.

Modern-day saddle makers build saddles for the real cowboys of the West who use them in cutting, reining, working cows, horses, rodeo and more. The images in this collection show off the skilled craftsmanship and creativity that goes into each one. Published in 2005 by Storcklein

TRIVIA by Ron Affolter

Tom Mix (b. January 6, 1880, Mix Run, Pennsylvania) was the top cowboy of American silent films. Mix was known for his daring stunts, and as years passed he became equally famous for his elaborate cowboy outfits; he's the model for the dandyish, squeaky-clean movie cowboy that was much parodied in later years. He also had a famous steed, "Tony the Wonder Horse." Mix's movie career ended when silent films were replaced by talkies, but later the Tom Mix radio program ran for nearly 20 years, with various actors providing the voice of "Tom Mix." Mix was married seven times to six different women.

Never had kind words for John Wayne because, many believe, he was afraid that Wayne would push him out of the limelight. That hatred grew as Wayne's star rose and, due to the fact that Mix wouldn't take a pay cut to do radio, his own star began to fall. Asked by a journalist what he thought of Wayne, Mix only replied, "The only Christian words that I could use are 'no-talent upstart'". Wayne, for his part, had disliked Mix since Wayne's college days at USC, when Mix told several members of the football team (Wayne among them) to stop by Fox Studios and he would get them jobs in the movies. Wayne and several others did so a few weeks later, only to be informed that Mix had never told anyone at the studio about his promises of employment, and they were thrown off the lot. Wayne never forgave Mix.

Served as a pallbearer at the funeral of legendary western lawman Wyatt Earp in 1929.

Tom Mix was killed in an automobile (the Iron Horse) accident on October 12, 1940, (at age 60) near Florence, Arizona.

SERIALS ON VIDEO

A lot has happened in recent years as far as serials on video are concerned. Most of the companies we previously obtained vhs tapes from no longer make them or have gone out of business. This includes Republic Home Video, Timeless Video, Hollywood Select Video, Discount Video, RKO Home Video, VCI, and more. Many major firms no longer make VHS tapes – only DVDs. However, almost all of the serials and B- westerns previously listed are still available on custom vhs tapes as they are in the public domain. But be aware that most of the vhs tapes no longer come in cases with posters on them – they mainly come in plain generic cases or in regular vhs tape cases. VHS serial sets are still $19.95 for members and $29.95 for NON-members.

Many serials are now available on DVDs. Serial DVD prices for members are $19.95 per serial except where a cheaper price is listed below. Serial DVD prices for NON-members are $19.95 each except where a higher regular price is listed. The two main firms that make serial DVDs are VCI and Alpha. In some cases they both make DVDs of the same serial. In my opinion VCI usually does a better job than Alpha. Here is a listing of the serials available on video. The vhs tapes of these serials are $19.95 each for members. Prices for the DVDs are listed. I have also listed the lost serials we are still looking for a source for;

WESTERNS & SERIALS

ISSUE #51


BOOKS

$$90.00 -- 50 Years Of The Television Western
by Ronald Jackson & Doug Abbott -- ISBN 9781434359254 – a pictorial history of television westerns from the 1950s heyday to the present. It contains over 400 photos -- many in color. Publish Date: 2009/02/06 – Publisher: Authorhouse – 372 pages.

$39.95 -- A History of Television’s The Virginian, 1962–1971 – By Paul Green - ISBN 978-0-7864-4680-3 - 57 photos, appendix, bibliography, index - 300pp. softcover (7 x 10) 2010
Description: On September 19, 1962, The Virginian made its primetime broadcast premiere. The 1902 novel by Owen Wister had already seen four movie adaptations when Frank Price mentioned the story’s series potential to NBC. Filmed in color, The Virginian became television’s first 90-minute western series. Immensely successful, it ran for nine seasons—television’s third longest running western.

This work accounts for the entire creative history of The Virginian, including the original inspirations and the motion picture adaptations—but the primary focus is its transformation into television and the ways in which the show changed over time. An extensive episode guide includes title, air date, guest star(s), writers, producers, director and a brief synopsis of each of The Virginian’s 249 episodes, along with detailed cast and production credits.

About the Author: Paul Green has worked as an artist for Marvel UK, DC Egmont and Western Publishing Company/Golden Books USA, among others. The author of numerous books about television history, he lives in Rustburg, Virginia.

$34.95 -- Buffalo Bill and Sitting Bull - Inventing the Wild West -- By Bobby Bridger – Published in 2002 by the University of Texas Press - 502 pages - ISBN: 978-0-292-70917-1 - This biography of William Cody focuses on his lifelong relationship with Plains Indians, a vital part of his life story that, surprisingly, has been seldom told. Bobby Bridger draws on many historical accounts and Cody's own memoirs to show how deeply intertwined Cody's life was with the Plains Indians. In particular, he demonstrates that the Lakota and Cheyenne were active co-creators of the Wild West shows, which helped them preserve the spiritual essence of their culture in the reservation era while also imparting something of it to white society in America and Europe. This dual story of Buffalo Bill and the Plains Indians clearly reveals how one West was lost, and another born, within the lifetime of one remarkable man.

Description: Following the 1912 publication of his wildly successful Tarzan of the Apes, Edgar Rice Burroughs authored four bestselling sequels in quick succession. In 1916, he decided to go back and recount selected adventures from Tarzan’s teenage years. The result was Jungle Tales of Tarzan, a dozen short stories bearing such titles as “Tarzan’s First Love” and “Tarzan Rescues the Moon” and which chronicle the events preceding the youthful hero’s ascension to “King of the Jungle.” The adolescent phase of the character is the primary focus of this detailed analysis. The context, themes, motifs, and stylistic techniques of Jungle Tales of Tarzan are all fully explored, as well as the property’s literary antecedents and its links to the various comic book and film adaptations of Edgar Rice Burroughs’ most celebrated and enduring creation.
About the Author: Stan Galloway has written several articles for The Burroughs Bulletin and has given presentations about Tarzan throughout the United States. He teaches literature at Bridgewater College in Virginia.

In addition to a detailed plot synopsis, cast and credit listings, and an overview of each film’s critical reception, Warren delivers richly informative assessments of the films and a wealth of insights and anecdotes about their making, often drawing on remarks by the filmmakers that have emerged in the quarter century since the original edition. The book is arranged by film title, contains 273 photographs (many rare, some in color), has seven useful appendices, and concludes with an enormous index. - $99.00

Covering all corners of the great Western expanse, these stories feature cowpokes of every ilk - Anglo males, Mexicans, women - and colorful characters such as the Cisco Kid, a surprisingly cold-hearted killer created by O.

Some are lively tales of adventure and romance, while others offer rare glimpses into the real-life world of the cattleman. Each will transport you to an all-but-vanished place and time. With contributions from: Owen Wister, Zane Grey, Isabella L. Bird, Theodore Roosevelt, O. Henry, William MacLeod Raine, Frederic Remington, F. R. Buckley, Clarence E. Mulford, B. M.

Their voices and images filled an entire generation with optimism and hope, and encouraged us all to dream big—the “cowboy way.”

Not just because of his high regard for Floyd Red Crow Westerman or his own life long identification with Native Americans and commitment to their cause, but because it is such a respectful, loving portrayal of the man's work. Floyd's deep, powerful voice resonates with the truth. I had no idea he could sound so much like John.”

PONY EXPRESS - by Norman Kietzer

Sad to hear that the Roy Rogers – Dale Evans Museum has gone out of business and that Roy's son Dusty has sold off the material that was in the museum.

When Roy was alive he was a great friend to Westerns and Serials fan club and for years while the museum was in Victorville he had our club magazines for sale in the gift shop at the museum. We also had a very good relationship with Mrs. Frances K.Williams who was the General Manager of the museum at that time.

Apparently the Rogers-Evans Museum (which was moved to Branson, Missouri, by Dusty Rogers several years ago) met the same fate as our fan club has – namely that so many of the fans of old western movies have passed away in recent years. I know that our own fan club membership is now less than one-fourth of what it was in the prime years, and each time I mail out an issue a number of them are returned with “deceased” stamped on the envelope.

Was happy to hear that the Roy Rogers-Dale Evans Collectors Association is still going strong. They hold an annual Roy Rogers Festival in Portsmouth, Ohio, each year in June. For more information write them at P.O. Box 1166, Portsmouth, Ohio 45662 or call LaRue Horsley at (740) 353-0900

Had a note from Ted Hakes (P.O. Box 12001, York, PA 17402) that his Americana & Collectibles Auction House is about to have their 200th auction. Ted started this business back in 1967.

$29.95 -- The Batman Filmography - Live-Action Features, 1943-1997 – by Mark S. Reinhart - ISBN 978-0-7864-6117-2 - notes, bibliography, index 240pp. softcover edition published in 2010 of earlier 2005 hardcover. Cowled and scowling, with a winged cape inspired by da Vinci and a thirst for justice born of his parents’ murder, he debuted as a comic book character in 1939. Even his earliest incarnation is instantly recognizable: Batman-the Caped Crusader. A few short years later Bob Kane’s creation leapt from the printed page to the silver screen, a brooding presence framed against the darkened Gotham skyline, ever vigilant to the misdeeds of a host of maniacal and devious enemies. Since his film debut in the 1940s, Batman and his alter ego Bruce Wayne have been a regular presence in movies. In various incarnations, with or without his cheerful sidekick Robin, Batman has remained an American icon, capturing the imagination of each successive generation of moviegoers. This detailed examination of live-action Batman features follows his motion picture adventures, from his first appearances on the screen in 1940’s film serials, through the camp craze surrounding the 1966 television series, up to the Warner Bros. series of summer blockbusters that began with 1989’s Batman starring Michael Keaton. Chapters on each of the seven feature-length Batman movies include extensive film and production credits, a production history, and a critical analysis of the movie relative to other Batman films and the original comic book character. Notes accompany each chapter, and an index and bibliography are included About the Author: Mark S. Reinhart works both as a Media Services Consultant and a musician in his hometown of Columbus, Ohio. He has written for The Lincoln Herald and presented a number of lectures on the subject of Lincoln-related film and television.

76 photos, filmography, notes, bibliography, index - 208pp. hardcover published in 2008 by McFarland. Buster Crabbe’s chief claim to fame, aside from his Olympic gold medal (for the 400-meter freestyle event in 1932), rests in the trio of movie serials in which he played the popular science-fiction hero Flash Gordon. Crabbe was the only actor to play the roles of Tarzan (in one movie), Flash Gordon, and Buck Rogers, the top three pulp action heroes of the 1930s. Crabbe carved out a career that would also include more than 100 B-movies and program Westerns, a television adventure series, and a successful physical fitness enterprise. All of this and more is detailed in this book, which includes a complete filmography providing cast and crew information for each of his 103 feature films and serials. About the Author: Writer Jerry Vermilye is an actor and lives in New York City.

$45.00 -- Chester Gould - A Daughter’s Biography of the Creator of Dick Tracy - by Jean Gould O’Connell - Foreword by Dick Locher - ISBN 978-0-7864-2825-0 -173 photos, appendices, index - 231pp. hardcover (7 x 10) Published in 2007 by McFarland - In 1931, the Chicago Tribune introduced the public to an exciting new comic strip destined to become a classic: Dick Tracy. Tracy’s creator, Chester Gould, would spend the next 46 years of his life developing the dynamic, crime-fighting character, and his work on the strip won him the Reuben Award for Outstanding Cartoonist of the Year in both 1959 and 1977. A revolutionary in the comics industry, Gould invented both a genre and an icon. The personal story of this pioneer cartoonist is now presented in a biography written by Gould’s only child. Beginning with his young life in a three-room house in Pawnee, Oklahoma, this book traces all the steps Gould took to eventually achieve remarkable distinction at the top of his field. The early pages relate his ancestors’ part in the Oklahoma land rush, drawing on the unpublished memoir of his father, Gilbert Gould. Chester Gould’s story is then augmented by his own personal commentary, taken directly from recorded conversations with his daughter. Throughout these conversations, Gould recollects the evolution of his career, from painting advertisements on barn roofs at age 17 to documenting the violent crime life of Chicago, from which he drew inspiration for his Dick Tracy strip. Discussion of his ambitions, disappointments, popular accomplishments, and family moments comprise a thorough account of Chester Gould’s fascinating life. Appendices include commentary from his two grandchildren and a comprehensive list of his awards and distinctions, which included formal recognition from three American presidents. About the Author: Daughter of Chester Gould, Jean Gould O’Connell contributed to her father’s Dick Tracy storylines and appeared as a character in the famous comic strip. She helped create the Chester Gould-Dick Tracy Museum in Woodstock, Illinois. She lives in Geneva, Illinois.

Many years after going off the air, Hee Haw remains the longest running variety show of its type in television history, having aired for nearly 600 episodes during its decades-long run. This book tells the complete story of how one of America’s classic television programs was created by two Canadians in Beverly Hills. Series co-creator John Aylesworth provides an intimate, behind-the-scenes look at some of Hee Haw’s best--and worst--moments, from the show’s shoestring beginnings in a tiny Nashville studio; to the "Great Country Massacre of 1971," which saw the cancellation of Hee Haw, The Beverly Hillbillies, Green Acres, and several other "country shows" on CBS; to its unprecedented success in syndication. Richly illustrated with dozens of the author’s personal photographs and memorabilia, the book also includes one appendix providing a complete list of Hee Haw episodes from 1969 to 1992.

$35.00 -- Gene Autry - His Life and Career - by Don Cusic - ISBN 978-0-7864-5978-0 - notes, bibliography, index - 235pp. softcover (7 x 10) Softcover edition published in 2010 by McFarland of hardcover book first published in 2007.

$39.95 -- Hollywood and the O.K. Corral - Portrayals of the Gunfight and Wyatt Earp – by Michael F. Blake - ISBN 978-0-7864-2632-4 - 85 photos, notes, bibliography, index - 265pp. softcover (7 x 10) Published in 2007 by McFarland - A lot can happen in 30 seconds. In the case of the shoot-out at the O.K. Corral, 30 seconds found three men dead, left two men wounded and ultimately captured the imagination of generations of Americans. Wyatt Earp, an against-all-odds hero who was literally the last man standing; Doc Holliday, Earp’s unlikely crony; the tragic tale of the Earp family--all of these elements make the story of the O.K. Corral irresistible to a great many people. Hollywood filmmakers were quick to recognize the legend’s attraction--and its potential. As early as 1939 (with the production of Frontier Marshal), moviemakers were recreating the gunfight at the O.K. Corral and its attendant happenings in Tombstone, Arizona, on October 26, 1881. The following decades produced various renderings of the story, some more historically accurate than others but all with the American flair for entertainment. This volume examines eight movie renderings of the legendary gunfight. Produced from 1939 to 1994, these movies each use Wyatt Earp and other real-life characters as their sources. The work focuses on the filmmakers’ treatment of the history and the skill with which each balances fact with the necessity of entertainment. The ways in which Wyatt Earp is presented in each film and this portrayal’s relationship to the period in which the film was made is also examined in detail. Films discussed are Frontier Marshal (1939), Tombstone: The Town Too Tough to Die (1942), My Darling Clementine (1946), Gunfight at the O.K. Corral (1957), Hour of the Gun (1967), Doc (1971), Tombstone (1993), and Wyatt Earp (1994). Period photographs are also included. About the Author: Michael F. Blake, an Emmy-winning makeup artist and leading film historian, has worked in the film industry for nearly fifty years. He has written for American Cinematographer, Performing Arts, Los Angeles Times and the Chicago Tribune. He lives in Los Angeles.

$35.00 -- John Wayne - Actor, Artist, Hero – by Richard D. McGhee – ISBN 978-0-7864-0752-1
51 photos, filmography, index - 399pp. Softcover edition published in 1999 by McFarland of 1990 hardcover. After the death of Marion Morrison, known as John Wayne, in 1979, President Jimmy Carter said that Wayne "was bigger than life. In an age of few heroes, he was the genuine article. But he was more than a hero; he was a symbol of many of the qualities that made America great." The first section of this study concentrates on Wayne’s style of work and sphere of action as an actor: The man who works for a living and is concerned with his audience and the constraints of his immediate environment. The second section examines the artist: the man who lives in his art, who disappears into his character as an archetype of human fears and desires. Analyses of films that have made Wayne a hero are presented in the third section. A comprehensive filmography and numerous photographs are included. About the Author: Richard D. McGhee lives in Jonesboro, Arkansas.

Yet these three actors played a crucial role in the changing environment of the post-World War II Western, and, in the process, made many excellent middle-budget films that are still a pleasure to watch. This account of these three Western stars’ careers begins in 1946, when Scott and McCrea committed themselves to the Western roles they would play for nearly twenty years. Murphy, who also joined them in 1946, would continue his Western career for a few years after his cohorts rode into the film sunset. Arranged chronologically, and balanced among the three actors, the text concludes with Audie Murphy’s last Western in 1967. Covering both the personal and professional lives of these three Hollywood cowboys, the book provides both their stories and the story of a Hollywood whose attitude toward the Western was in a time of transition and transformation. The text is complemented by 60 photographs and a filmography for each of the three. About the Author: Robert Nott is an arts and entertainment writer for The Santa Fe New Mexican. He lives in Santa Fe, New Mexico.

$45.00 – The Zorro Television Companion - A Critical Appreciation – by Gerry Dooley
ISBN 978-0-7864-2058-2 - 51 photos, notes, index - 276pp. softcover (7 x 10) Published in 2005 by McFarland - The legendary Zorro, the masked renegade who rode through the night defending justice in late 18th century Spanish California, became in 1957 the topic for Walt Disney Studios’ first continuing live-action series and the name of a new American icon. Based on the stories of Johnston McCulley, the legend of Zorro gave birth to the archetypal dual-identity crime fighter, inspiring the creation of such future pop icons as Batman and the Lone Ranger. This book documents the conception and success of a television legend that has endured for over 40 years. The opening chapter discusses the growth of Zorro, from Johnston McCulley’s creation of the character in 1919 to Walt Disney’s adaptation of the story and its 1957 ABC premier, and provides an introduction to the star actor behind the mask, Guy Williams. Subsequent chapters reveal behind-the-scenes aspects of the action show, discussing the secrets of Zorro’s fencing technique and daredevil stunts and giving insight into the cast, costumes, sets, crew and music of the episodes. Chapters Four through Nine deal exclusively with the content of the first and second seasons as well as the four one hour specials on Walt Disney Presents. Plot summaries are provided for each episode. The Zorro legend continued to enjoy worldwide popularity long after the filming of the final episode, and concluding chapters discuss the cultural significance of the legend outside of America, particularly in Argentina, where Guy Williams continued his career as the famous pop-culture hero off the screen.


PONY EXPRESS by Norman Kietzer

A small portion of the memorabilia from the Roy Rogers Museum that went out of business last year was purchased by the Gene Autry Museum which will now have a section on Roy Rogers. The Autry Museum is a major corporate museum compared to the much smaller family run Roy Rogers museum.

I once heard or read a comparison between the multi-millionaire Gene Autry and the well off but not nearly as rich Roy Rogers. It was by Rex Allen and it went something like this.

If your sink was plugged up and you called both Roy and Gene and told them about your problem, Roy would be right over with his shirt sleeves rolled up carrying a snake and a plunger, while Gene would call up the most expensive plumber in California and send him to your house (paid for) to fix your sink.”

Both men would help you in their own way, and I'm glad to see that even after they are gone Gene Autry is preserving some of the Roy Rogers material with section in his expensive museum.

Getting back to the Roy Rogers Museum material, the Gene Autry Museum did NOT purchase the major portion of it. That was sold auction at Christies. Some of the major prices paid were:
$266,000 for stuffed Trigger.
$35,00 for Bullet – both purchased by RFD TV.
$116,500 for Nellybelle the Jeep
$25,000 for Buttermilk
$18,750 for Trigger Jr.

In all the total sale of Roy Rogers material at Christies was $2.98 million.

RFD-TV which bought Trigger and Bullet is using them in the opening of the program on their cable network where they show Roy Rogers movies, and they are also sending the two of them on a 48 state tour of American. You can go to www.triggerandbullet.com to learn more about the tour schedule, and the RFD-TV Roy Rogers Riders Club.

Speaking of things related to cowboy stars that are for sale, The Flying A Estate in Studio City, California, where Gene Autry lived during the last fifty years of his life is available for only $6,900,000 and for additional money you can even buy it fully furnished.
